Lord Duke

Chapter 37 Retreat

West Brunn Castle

The butler has already implemented the things that the Duke had arranged before.

Lostshire and Yorkshire have not yet been affected by the war. They are located in the easternmost part of the west, near the center.Now the chaos in the west has subsided a little.Most of the nobles reached an unanimous conclusion with a tacit understanding. However, their own trust is not high. In addition, the Kelin army is not weak and well-informed, but it did not take much effort for the Kelin to invade the west. Moving on from west to east.

The butler directed the servants to wipe the furniture and candlesticks.The servants did not neglect their duties, and they all worked hard to do their jobs well.The butler went up the double spiral staircase, inspected all the way, and finally nodded with satisfaction.

The Slant family is a veteran aristocrat, and this Brunn Castle is one of the assets owned by the Slant family, which was assigned to the Slant.Therefore, the servants who can enter the castle to work are cultivated by the Slant family from an early age, and they are loyal to the family.

After the housekeeper received a letter from this morning, his expression finally changed, and he felt deeper admiration in his heart.He straightened his expression, just like any well-bred butler, turned around and went out to do his work.

months ago.

When Slant left Brunn Castle, he did not take all his troops with him. Considering the situation in the west, he always left troops to guard his Lostshire and Yorkshire.Moreover, he temporarily set up a small factory near Brunn Castle to smelt iron, using the prescription that Payne gave him, of course.

Slant's eyelids twitched after seeing the consumption of funds presented by his subordinates.Ah... out of money again.Although he knew that casting weapons cost money, he was a little depressed.However, as soon as he thought that this was what Payne needed, he immediately cheered up, and he could earn more money, but there can only be one Duchess... He touched his chin, smiling cunningly, it seemed that Some are malicious.

He ran through ways to make money in his mind, but his eyes stopped when a woolen coat was hanging on the clothes hanger.He smiled thoughtfully, and began to write the plan.

Cotton...linen...print...dyed...velvet, gold velvet...and now war.

He ran through the inextricable relationships in his mind, lightly scratched his cheeks with his fingertips, and scribbled and corrected a few times with a pen in one hand. He blew on the ink marks and was satisfied.

In addition to this arrangement, he also planned to estimate the time and gradually improve the smelting technology and gradually introduce it to his large factory in Yorkshire.Businessmen pursue profit, and this move can not only bring great benefits to the businessman, but also make a lot of money for themselves.Slant is very talented in business, almost self-taught, no one can grab more benefits from him.What's more, Yorkshire is his territory, and he is confident that his technology will not be stolen and imitated.

He deliberately played a trick on the prescription.

The steward had roughly learned about Slant's actions in the past few times when he received letters from Slant, and couldn't help but be shocked by His Excellency Duke's keen judgment. Although it was good in the past, but now it is like this...

He really had nothing to say.

Several months passed in a flash, and when Slant Payne faced off against the Sahib army, Slant's previous arrangement could be closed.It's just that Slant didn't free up his hands to deal with it, so he kept procrastinating.

Until this morning the steward received a letter from the Duke.

********

Thousands of arrows fired.

Some of the enemies reacted quickly and pulled out their shields, some waved their swords to block, but many of them didn't expect that the opponent would suddenly shoot arrows, and they would be injured or killed.

Shi De had already managed to retreat with the help of another golden knight.Knight Commander Ria glanced lightly, but didn't say anything, and turned back to join Knight Commander Thur.

Slant's arrow didn't hit anyone, but shot down the flag of Saxi country unabated - the flag with the goshawk printed on it fluttered down.

Veins suddenly appeared on Keshia's face, and he had already formally fought against Payne.As soon as the hands were handed over, the opponent released an arrow.Keshiya couldn't help saying angrily: "Despicable! Shameless!"

Payne looked cold, turned the long sword in his hand, and put it on Keshia's neck at an extremely tricky angle.He glanced over like frost and snow, as if he had never taken him to heart: "This is war."

There was a sound of breaking through the air behind him.One left and one right.

Payne's expression was still calm, but his body was incredibly flexible. He turned slightly sideways, and moved the sword on Keshia's neck away, blocking the sword of a knight on the left, but his left hand grasped it neatly. Another raider dropped his horse.

His series of movements are like clouds moving in the sky, like water flowing on the ground, smooth and natural, as if he has done this thousands of times.Keshia frowned impatiently, but tightened the reins, trying to keep a certain distance away from him on horseback.

Payne actually released the water on purpose, and killing Keshiya now will do all harm but no benefit.He lifted his chin slightly, and the blue stars on his hat shone brightly.A strand of black hair hung down in front, his eyes were extremely dark, the blue ground was almost black, and the whole person just made a simple movement, but it was indescribably arrogant and indifferent, which also made Keshia bored for no reason.

Payne: "Retreat. You have no chance of winning."

Keshia sneered, and he touched the scab on his face: "It's okay. Leave the archer to me." He squinted his eyes, a little wanton and a little cold.

Payne's expression turned a little colder, his displeasure was so obvious, his expression was a little condescending, so imposing that people almost ignored his own excellent appearance.

Even though he was in the hustle and bustle of the battlefield, there seemed to be a blank space around him.The brim of his hat cast a shadow on his face, making it hard to see the expression on his face. He seemed to be smiling slightly, but his eyes were shining with a cruel and cruel light. He used this Looking at Keshia with this look, his tone was light: "You... are worthy?"

Keshia knew in his heart that it was impossible to hand over people to himself, so he just made a joke.His intelligence officer had already shown him all the information the man could find in his rage.At this time, he raised his lips slightly and said in surprise: "Why? The temporary alliance is so unbreakable? It seems that the Duke of Payne—"

The sharp sword light dazzled Keshia's eyes.

Suddenly, the long sword pierced his arm.Keshia couldn't help but groaned in pain, the expression on his face seemed to suddenly become tyrannical, but all of them were quickly restrained, leaving only an expressionless face, only the cold sweat on the forehead revealed his pain at this time.He originally boasted that his riding and shooting skills were good, but at this moment, this feeling of being powerless to resist made him stunned for a moment.

They fought each other, and the surrounding knight guards could not and did not have the opportunity to intervene.

Payne took a deep look at Keshia, but Keshia felt as if he was being targeted by something dangerous, a little startled and a little cold.He couldn't help but began to doubt the previous information: "The Duke of Payne in the east is calm and calm, his emotions and anger are invisible, and he is as cold as an iceberg that will never melt. His combat power exceeds that of ordinary golden knights, and he is victorious in every battle."

The smell of blood poured into the tip of his nose one by one, and he stabilized his somewhat disturbed mood at this time. Keshia tried his best to slowly elicit a smile, and he said: "Knowing that the loss was not caused by my generation, You should retreat." His arm was in excruciating pain, and he tried his best not to show any timidity.

But Payne didn't even look at him, as if he had never taken him seriously.Keshia couldn't express what he felt in his heart, and it was rare for him to be so severely frustrated.Speaking of which, his previously stagnant mind began to function, the coach was in danger, why didn't there be enough golden knights to appear? !Searle and Ria are in formation, and what about his hidden golden knights and the silver knights he intends to train?

His heart turned sharply, and he quickly returned to his senses to look at the battlefield. When he saw it, he couldn't help tearing his eyes, and felt great hatred in his heart!

After Slant directed the people to release the arrows, he did not pass on orders casually.The enemy's formation was disrupted by them for a moment, but it recovered quickly.However, morale fell due to the falling of the flag.Of course, due to lack of precautions, many people were damaged, and the enemy army suffered setbacks, but it was a bit more chilling.

Slante raised his eyebrows and looked carefully. After a few rough glances, he couldn't see any mystery, so he simply waved his hand lazily: "Follow the order that Duke Payne gave you before."

The knight guards behind him quickly lined up, and they all responded neatly and forcefully: "Yes!"

Slant had known for a long time that the Duke of Payne had already passed on an order when he said "break it with strength".

His eyes followed the black and blue figure almost all the way, and he couldn't help chuckling.It was his sudden idea to release the arrow, but Payne had guessed his intention and arranged the follow-up for him.He couldn't help laughing in a low voice, so delicate and gentle, he had to hold on tight.

Keshia almost gritted his teeth, and the Golden Knight was not broken, after all, the Golden Knight itself was very difficult to deal with.However, the several Silver Knights he brought this time, his confidantes, and the potential good seedlings he was optimistic about, were strangled on this battlefield before they grew into towering trees!Originally, this war was not considered serious. What he was fighting for was to reap benefits, not to fight to the death with the other party.

Backing down and moving forward, he has a rough idea of ​​how to fight without showing deep hatred.But now? !

Kesha took a breath.No matter how powerful Sir and Riah's knight commanders are, they will suffer losses if they consume them for a long time.He could see that several armies were joining the battlefield, and he wanted to expand their weak disadvantages, so he made a decisive decision: "Retreat!"

The clouds in the sky are like cotton candy, white and soft, floating around.The sun pierced through the clouds and sprinkled on this battlefield.

Prince Arizona had a headache and was irritable, and the gloom on his face was almost solidified.He was the only one in the room, and he was currently in a small county near Wangcheng.

Now he has received a message, which is temporarily blocked, but it won't be long.He cut off the stem of the rose with his fingers, and rubbed the petals of the rose roughly and gently. The petals scattered all over the ground, and the rose turned black.

As if trying to understand something, the changing look on Prince Arizona's face finally settled on firmness.He took out the prince's seal from his jacket pocket, with a rare gentle look on his face.He whispered word by word: "I am Alexan Love of the royal family of Love. I am a member of the royal family and will protect its final glory for the royal family."

He opened the door and went out, the sun fell all over his body.

He can't escape, he wants to do what he should do, even if his strength is negligible, even if he can't influence the overall situation, even if he is a moth to the flame, he will never regret it!
